DIY: Spring flower bombs


I don't know if you've heard but ETSY has launched a new DIY site called ETSY STUDIO where you can learn just about anything. Aaaand you can get all the supplies you need to create whatever DIY you choose to make right there on the site.

So, in order to celebrate Spring I thought a post about a wildflower garden from ETSY would be in order so here it is.

These are super easy to make, all you have to do is take 2 tbsps of native wildflower seeds (about 8 packs of seeds) and add them to 1 cup of bentonite clay and 1 cup of sifted compost or potting mix. Add about 1/2 cup of water to make your mixture resemble the texture of thick cookie dough. You must be able to form balls with it.
